(BL) Hunting The Field Guide novel Chapter 432

Chapter 432: A small domestic moment

Pamela was already hard at work. Kellen, Brent, Casper and Rhys finished dinner together before Brent and Kellen followed the other two back to the conference room.

Pamela had gotten the heads up from Kellen, and she had apparently sent crying face emojis to Casper in response. She was grateful that Kellen wasn’t just resorting to violence this time and when Kellen said that it was because he had fled to the front lines, Brent had laughed, along with Rhys.

Even Casper had smiled slightly at that, while Kellen finished another protein shake. It was just the truth. If Uncle Tom was nearby, he’d have decked the man already. S Class or otherwise. Anything that followed after that?

Well, if the accusation was true, or otherwise, Kellen felt that at this point, Uncle Tom had made his bed. It was high time he slept in it.

Kellen didn’t mind helping Pamela out with answering emails and the like as she prepared to get this press conference set up. Brent even stepped in to help as Rhys dealt with the other side of things. Kellen wasn’t even going to have to attend this one, he was able to continue about his day.

Which meant he was much more willing to help out so that he didn’t have to be there, in front of a camera as his name hadn’t even been fully brought up. Only the Saturn Guild had been brought up and made assumptions about, and Pamela agreed with Kellen.

There was no precedence set for Guides taking on the powers of the Espers they guided. It hadn’t been documented before, not even in the secret areas of the international Guide database. Parts that Kellen didn’t have access to, but that Casper did.

Kellen wasn’t terribly surprised to hear that. No one was. Kellen just knew what had happened to him, what the others were investigating, and what was taught. They were in the process of trying to find out if Kellen was the first of his kind or otherwise, and this? What Uncle Tom was trying to do?

This was just going to be the end for him, not for Kellen or Rhys or even the Saturn Guild.

What it was, was a good distraction for Hill and Sergei. It allowed them to have some more time with the members of, presumably the E.A.G. so that they could get as much information as they needed out of them. Taylor had already headed towards the front lines, along with one of Captain Sergei’s team. Sakura had said that she could send some people, but Sergei had waved her off.

He told her to have her team focus on the poison coming out of the gate. They, the Nemesis and Saturn Guild, had this one.

Suffice to say, all of this work meant that the next day was chaotic for Rhys and Pamela. Kellen had it easy. He was sore from his work out the day before, so he only went down for a little bit of light weightlifting and stretching with Brent before he came back up to his apartment and made a full breakfast for Rhys.

He woke him up in bed, a tray full of things that he liked and Rhys had grumbled. He had gone on a monologue about how much he loved Kellen and how grateful he was to have him in his life. Kellen’s heart had felt full upon hearing it, and he then helped the man get ready for his press conference.

He was going to wear the uniform that he normally wore on the front lines. It was very similar to the Captain uniform that he normally wore, but with a few differences. It was more decorated, for one. The coat was a little thicker, made out of a material that was formed from several fabrics from the gates that made it resistant to most weather. The weaving also made it resistant to most damage from non magical weapons, and some poisons.

None of those facts were the reason Rhys had decided to wear the clothing. No, the outfit was going to be a declaration. Alongside the words he was planning to speak, Rhys was also declaring that there was nowhere else that Uncle Tom was going to be able to run.

Rhys was coming for him. For his title, his position, everything. Lieutenant Fisher had also agreed to come to the press conference, sitting at the bottom of the stairs in the place that was normally reserved for Pamela. She was actually going to be on the platform this time, sitting next to Rhys where Gunther or even Kellen would normally sit.

Kellen kept his positive attitude as he said goodbye to Rhys in the elevator, getting a deep kiss before the man ran away. Kellen carried that kiss with him as he headed to his office, settling down to work on the training plan again before he had to head to his class. _{freēwebnovel.com}
